@EmilyVanDuyne After I had twins, I didn’t lose the weight. My parents joined us for an evening thing and we all dressed up and I was feeling quite fancy, and my dad said, “You used to be so pretty.” Never have lost the weight, but I did stop putting any weight in Dad’s opinion.

@GregAbbott_TX What is a qualifying medical emergency? If a woman arrives at the hospital having attempted suicide because she would rather die than carry her rapist’s baby to term, would that qualify? Exactly whose lives have value under this law? Not women’s, clearly. Rapists maybe.

@marielvallejos4 If it came to that, yes, I'd prefer Biden to be CIC. He has years of knowledge and experience w/ the foreign landscape, and our allies' leaders trust him. Trump has shown that he's impulsive, leaps first without considering consequences, and has murky allegiances (i.e., Putin).
